Drew
Pendleton vs. Dennis
DombrowRound 1
Pendleton starts the action by taking Dombrow down.
Ground-and-pound is the order of the day. Very quickly is Pendleton
in a near mount, but Dombrow is able to get to guard. Not for long,
though, as Dombrow turtles and takes punishment from behind. The
fight returns to the feet and the fighters exchange punches at
distance. Pendleton looks tired, while Dombrow swings wide and
hard. Pendleton goes in head down, kicking, but soon finds himself
eating a knee and some solid shots from Dombrow. 10-9
Pendleton.

Round 2

Dombrow continues to land more of punches, but both men are intent
to inflict punishment. A knee from Dombrow gets cheers, but
Pendleton digs down for a flurry of hands. Dombrow dials-in on his
range on a tired opponent and finds his mark. He tries to
capitalize by taking Pendleton to the ground. Fortunes are soon
reversed as Dombrow finds himself in a solid guillotine. Pressure
is applied, arms are tapped, and the fight is ended. Both fighters
lay motionless; due to exhaustion, submission or both. Drew
Pendleton defeats Dennis Dombrow by submission (guillotine) at 2:38
of round two. The Austin crowd applauds the local product.

In a prefight interview that may air on the Showtime telecast, Nick
Gonzales just sang, "The stars at night, are big and bright,
deep in the heart of Texas!"

Franco (right) won suddenly.

Ousmane
Thomas Diagne vs. Aaron
FrancoRound 1
Diagne starts us off with a low kick. He and Franco exchange a bit.
Franco takes the fight to the ground, sitting in Diagne's guard
doing a whole lot of nothing. A stand up seems imminent. But yet,
the nothingness continues. Franco can't seem to operate in Diagne's
guard. He attempts an elbow and some rudimentary ground and pound,
and eventually starts to land. Diagne is locked on from the bottom,
but the crowd has chosen Franco, the local boy, as its hero. Diagne
works his way to an attempted ankle lock, but gave it up quickly.
Franco passes to the side, and then to mount where he ends the
fight with left, right, left, right, good night. The official time
is 4:22 of round one.

GonzalezRound 1

flees, using movement to evade the blows. Douglas is not denied for
long, however, and the Gracie jiu-jitsu practitioner finds
Gonzalez's chin with a left hand. Douglas pounces and begins
landing heavy ground and pound, causing Gonzalez to give up his
back. Douglas sinks the rear-naked choke and Schorle waves off the
bout at 1:05 of round one.

working hard from the clinch. As they break, Larson lands a shot
and shortly afterward hits a double-leg. Larson passes easily to
side control and secures a topside crucifix. Larson continually
lands jackhammer left hands, but Apple is game and continues to
squirm. Larson now steps over the head, setting up a farside
kimura. Apple defends, however, and Larson returns to the crucifix
position. Larson again goes for the kimura, attempting to jerk the
arm out. Suddenly, Apple gives up his back but quickly recovers
guard. In a shocking reversal, Apple tries to lock up a heel hook
and then a kneebar. Larson appears in no real trouble, however, and
passes to mount as the horn sounds to end round one.
